Kelly Osbourne Had A Very Special Bond With Ozzy Osbourne
On his birthday last December, Kelly Osbourne shared a throwback photo of her and her dad along with a touching message.
“When I think about people that I am proud of no one tops you Dadda,” Kelly wrote. “I love you more than words can describe. Happy birthday to the price of darkness!!!”
Ozzy’s fans agreed with Kelly Osbourne.
“He is still one of the nicest and most respectful people I met when working with artist since 2007 during concerts. Before he left he wanted to thank everyone,” a fan wrote.
“Your dad is one of my absolute idols, not just for the kick ass rock career he’s had and inspirational run in Black Sabbath and solo career but from the very little he came from, he’s a true British inspiration, long live the King of Metal Ozzy!,” another person wrote.
Kelly Osbourne joined her family in Birmingham for Ozzy’s last show on July 5. They released a statement regarding his death on July 22 that reads,
“It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.”
